Sometimes a word is misused so frequently for so long that the dictionary people throw up their hands and say, ok you win. That is literally what is happening with literally.

I noted yesterday that we would do well to describe what role the actions Trump is performing, rather than assuming he is functioning as President. Mostly, Trump is an old man retreating into his lifelong hobbies: construction, cons, and corruption. With lots of golf.

This is a good basic list of #aac devices. My adult son uses the novachat dedicated device and touchchat app. If child is of school age, insist on an aac eval by a qualified slp. If older, ask about insurance coverage for an eval.

True, and people who refer to themselves as neurospicy can not begin to understand what it is like to live with profound autism by virtue of their sharing an overly broad diagnosis.

Also an issue with autistic people, particularly those with profound autism.

Whistleblowers just shared a memo showing DHS instructing ICE to force their way into peoples' houses without a proper warrant. Why is this not on all the networks right now? This is a criminal conspiracy to violate rights under color of law.

One of the great failures of contemporary political news coverage in a lot of media is the unspoken principle that no violation of norms or decency by Trump is really news, worthy of sustained attention, unless it also upsets people who love him. It isn't "not taking the bait"; it's sleepwalking.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted. If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

Parents, get an eval from a qualified speech language pathologist. If your child has an IEP, your district should do this and provide the appropriate tool if necessary. Don't rely on advice over the internet. share.google/RbQVUj7kJZmK...

The GOP once supported special education programs. Recent dismissals at the Education Department put an end to that support.

Florida ranks near the bottom in services for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. The waitlist can exceed 10 years. Managed care is reducing services. Providers can't keep up with wage inflation. Let's change this together. Thank you to Matt and Jadene for your counsel.
